What am I studying for?

 I don't understand. I don't understand why I studied all day, all night, even skipping the gym and hanging out, but my score didn't increase. I study 12/24 hours a day. Hey teachers, do you want me to study 24/24 hours? I will become crazy!!!

 This morning, I completed the 15-minute Physics and Math tests. Despite having practiced multiple times, I struggled to recall the how to answer all questions. I have to wait until next week to receive my Physics score, but I'm anticipating it will be quite low. My Math teacher graded the papers right away, and I was disappointed of myself when I found my scored only 5.5 out of 10 (10 out of 22). My friends comforted me that studying is a process, it cannot be achieved in one stage and you can get better grades.

 But they don't know I want to study abroad (specifically in Australia). It was my goal. To achieve it, I have to get a GPA higher than 9.5/10 in the whole year. But when I see my score today, I know it will be impossible. Aww, why I was so incompetent? I want to be the perfect person myself, but why it was too hard? 

 I don't know. I don't know what am I studying for. Just study and study, just study because everyone said it will be for my future. I don't know. I don't want to study. I'm so tired. Life is short, so why do I have to make myself try hard when I could enjoy it?

 They said all the effort I put in now would be wrapped up and paid back to me in the future, but I haven't seen the results after studying day and night? Awwww, I hate life.

First month in Taiwan

 I had to adjust my emotions to write this article. When I went through the security gate at the airport, I did not turn back to look at my parents but kept walking because I was crying. I realized it would be long before I could see my family again.  When I heard the announcement, "Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to Taipei. We've just landed at Taoyuan International Airport, where the local time is fifteen twenty-five in the afternoon.", I know I have lost many things, but I will gain something that no one else could ever have.  I've been to Taiwan for a month. I stay in Hsinchu. I'm a student abroad studying computer science at National Yang-Ming Chiao Tung University on a scholarship. I have achieved my dream.  My journey to apply for study abroad was urgent and arduous because I initially had no intention of studying in Taiwan. The first day I arrived in Taiwan was September 6th, late for a week. I missed orientation day and the first class...

Feeling alone in a strange country

 I feel like I was abandoned in Taiwan. I know exactly where this feeling forms. I don't have too many friends here. Or just don't have anyone with the same interests as me, anyone to confide in. Some of my high school friends texted me to ask if I was doing well, and I felt somewhat comforted. However, they remind me of my old life.  The students in my departments always have parties together, hang out, practice drama together, and do group activities. I don't know how they became so close so quickly and where they got the information from the above session. Maybe they have their own group line chat, or they just tell each other when they have lunch together. Yeah, I usually have lunch alone cause I don't have friends here. I watched my high school friends' stories. All my best friends have their own lives when they go to college. They looked happy with each other. They have a life that I always dreamed of. I have my dream university, but my life is not good at all...

What's scarier than physical exhaustion

 I'm tired. Near the graduation date, I'm so worried about my future. My school posted an article on their Facebook fan page about my success in enrolling the Yang Ming Chiao Tung University. Everyone knew about it, but they didn't know if I couldn't get the official high school diploma in July, I couldn't study at that university. The university doesn't understand about Vietnam rule, Vietnam only provide temporary certificate to student, and the official certificate only provide to student in September. This put me on fire. I even asked the Teco this afternoon to contact the MOE of Taiwan, but they didn't help me.  My plan was to study all afternoon today, but I couldn't follow it. I'm tired— not physical exhaustion, but mental exhaustion. This afternoon, my dog bit Ms. Nguyet, a woman who lives next to my house. She yelled, and I think all my neighbors knew about it. Maybe my parents have to apologize to her and compensate her with a large amount o...
